Hi All,


I sometimes run NVDA from a thumb drive at work, and all is good. My 
problem is that I'm not sure how to stop using NVDA. I'll describe what 
I do. I'm hoping for help doing it better.


1. When I finish working, I press NVDA+q to quit the screen reader, then 
enter to confirm. I hear the NVDA shutdown earcon, and speech stops.


2. I press ctrl+Windows+enter to start Narrator.


3. I navigate to the thumb drive in This PC.


4. I press the context key, down-arrow to Eject, and press enter.


5. I get a window telling me that the file is in use. It prompts me to 
Cancel, Retry, or Continue, bearing in mind that I may lose unsaved work 
if I select Continue. I press enter on Continue anyway.


At the end of Step 5, my expectation is that I'll hear the disconnect 
chime and get a popup telling me I can remove my thumb drive. That 
doesn't happen, even if I spend a few minutes before Step 4 closing down 
other programs, etc. Pressing enter on Try Again in Step 5 doesn't help, 
and neither does cancelling and starting over from Step 3. I wind up 
just pulling the thumb drive out and obsessing about whether I've broken 
it this time.


What am I doing wrong?


Thanks for any wisdom.


Ciao
